Spring Wedding at Celebrations at the Reservoir

Jessica and Sam were married at the beautiful Celebrations at the Reservoir in Chesterfield, VA.  Throughout the week leading up to their wedding day the weather showed rain, rain, rain.  But boy oh boy did we get so lucky! In fact despite the radar Jessica made the call to continue with an outdoor ceremony... and it was just perfect!!

I smiled so much throughout their big day and even more so going through all of their images.  I have never seen so many people smiling as big as they did, their families and friends.  It was a true celebration! One of my favorite aspects of Jessica and Sam's wedding day was her uncle marrying the two of them and sharing so many fun memories as well as their personal vows to one another!  These two are clearly so in love and I hope they had the best honeymoon ever in Antigua!! :) Thank you Jessica and Sam for allowing me to photograph your big day! 

A huge shoutout to the vendors!

Eeeek! I have been dying to share these photos and I know Lindsay has been dying to see them!!

I am SO looking forward to it!! Enjoy SOME of my favorite images!

Virginia Vineyard Wedding

Nicole & Wes l Richmond, VA

Wow!  Let me just say, normally I blog weddings 2-3 days after the wedding itself.  But this wedding has so many amazing moments, it took me a week longer to narrow down my favorites.  I am SO excited to share these images with you all!

I want to start out by saying thank you to Wes, Nicole and their families for including me in their big day! This day was full of so many happy tears, laughter and excitement! Their wedding day ran perfectly from start to finish, with every single detail so perfectly placed.  Anyone who walked into the reception area could sense the amount of time and love that went into this beautiful day!

Nicole and Wes, you two radiate happiness.  It is completely obvious how in love you both are and there is no doubt in my mind that you two are destined to have a beautiful life together!
 

I can't wait to share my favorites below from Wes and Nicole's BIG DAY!! First I want to give a big shoutout to the wonderful vendors! Thank you to all of you who helped ensure that this day ran so seamlessly.

Spring Wedding at Amber Grove Inn

Dylan & Charity l Richmond, VA

Dylan and Charity were married at the gorgeous Amber Grove Inn in Chesterfield, VA. Every little detail was so well thought out and I enjoyed seeing all of the beautiful finishings.  Between their gorgeous centerpieces to their Duck Donut bar, every single aspect of their wedding day was a perfect example of the two of them! 

Throughout their ceremony you could see the pure joy in their eyes as they shared their vows. I am so excited for not only Dylan and Charity but I am so happy for Lillian!
